To the Pierce County Commissioners Dear Sirs; 1 want to thank you and to express the thanks of thou sands of others for the repairs you are making on the main Valley highway to Tacoma, Keep it up. Fill all the ruts CHIEF SEATTLE. To the School Kiddies Dear Youngsters: Eight days more and you'll be trudging “like \To the Mothers of Seattle mails unwillingly” to school to may “good morning, teacher,” and to bury your faces in books and dream about the fast ishing vaca- tion days, Don't waste your time in regrets, but make the most of the Vacation time left. When you grow up, you know, you'll be envy- ing the youngsters who can go to school instead of having to work, Just as we envy you now, CHIEF BEATTLE. To Councilman Joe, O'Neill of Akron, O. Dear Joo: 1 rei with great Interest your announcement that the names of many Akron streets are to be changed to names of Akron soldiers killed in the war in Europe. ‘ It's @ good idea which should be passed along to Seattle's councilmen. CHIEF SEATTLE. To Ralph Obenchain, Los Angeles Dear Ralph: You are a man after my own hei You came to the defense of your former wife, not knowing nor caring whether she was guilty or not of the crime with which she is charged. That's what I call real devotion. It's something you don't nee very often nowadays. It's @ quality that Madalynne evidently lacked. Ralph, you deserved a lot better than you've gotten out of this life. And, | want you to know that I think the men away up bigh in the Aetna Insurance company who fired you because you went to your divorced wife's rescue are a bunch of pinheads, 1 don't want your ex-wife to go free if she's guilty, but I do admire you immensely. CHIEF SEATTLE. To Mr. Salisbury, Weather Man My Dear Sir: I am growing suspicious of you. You have cut out summer short at both ends with unseasonable rains. ‘There is just one way you can “come back” into popular esteem. Give us a record-breaking Indian summer, It's the finest weather on the Ist anyhow. “ CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Powers That Be Easteemed Public Servants: A published letter to the editor of The Star criticiaed the unpainted condition of the Totem pole. And, lo, one of you read that letter and went forth and applied « bright new coat. Fine! Thank ~you! Now I would direct your attention to the unpainted condition, the unreadable condition of most of our street signs, As another letter- writer suggested, washing would help most of them. Others should be repainted. In fact, painting would help them all. A hint ought to be enough, Let's go. CHIEF SEATTLE. To Men Who Respect and Honor Woma Brothers: A Seattle manufacturer whore business took him last week thru the lower part of the business district tells me with borror and astonishment that he found many Jap pool halls and bootlegging joints operating—with young white girls employed as waitresses and attendants. " Evidently, he declares, these places are police protected. They are Aot so vicious as some of the dens that flourished in the “good old days,” but they are far from being fit environment for young American women. And, expecially, when the overseers are Japs! What ts to be done about this? It must be something drastic. CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Newsboy Who Tips His Hat Dear Fellow: A friend of mine just happened to mention you. She says, “He's a regular little gentleman; he tips his hat every time he sells & paper. He's all right—and he must have » “ice mother who knows how to bring up her boys.” 1 just thought I'd tell you about it. Good luck, CHIEF SEATTLE. ° To Messenger Boys on Bikes Dear Speed Fiends: It undoubtedly is hot stuff to go dashing thru the downtown streets on your little velocipedes, scaring narrowly missing street cars and hanging on to the stern sheets of automobiles, But some of these days the old racing eye will fail you, and you will bump into something and do a tailspin to the pavement, and, perhaps, if such a thing is possdble, it will knock sense into your childish brains, CHIEF SEATTLE. : To Railway Magnates Exsteemed Enemy: Where do you get this stuff of running long trains of freight cars over Railroad ave, just as my boat is leavitg for Bainbridge inland? Don't you know there is a city ordidknce against shuttling trains of cars on the waterfront during the day? What is the tdea—to see how many people you can cause to mias their after- noon boats? Wake up! CHIEF SEATTLE. To the 3 Alleged “Black Bandits’ Unfortunate Trio: Thru careless maneuvering, the fault of most criminals, you were caught. Your brutal robbing was like that of the revengeful Shylock. It is a bard road, the jute mill apd your future is as black as your past. “Honesty is the best policy.” ‘ CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Southern Baptist Missionaries Reverend Sirs and Ladies: From where I write, thru my window, 1 soe the shaky and weatherworn establishment of Sing Lee, laundry- man; one number north, the Togo dye works Sing’s windows are cracked and patched with a faded sign over the door. He looks busy and he st. Togo sports clean windows on the outside, a buzzer over the door and curtains to hide your view Bing Lee needs a missionary—not so Togo. patch. You will never see behind his curtain, front and a new sign. To Mlle. Lenglen “There, little girl; don't ery.” Togo has no windows to Lee needs a “snappier” CHIEF SEATTLE. CHIEF SEATTLE, Dear Ladies: Don't become panic-stricken at reports of an infantile paralysis epidemic, These things generally grow and thrive on rumor, Seattle's splendid health department is on the job. Believe their re. ports—not the gossip of some excited neighbor. If Billy or Eva has a blazing headache, call in a reputable physician. It may be only a little stomach trouble—but better safe than sorry, The chief danger comes from not detecting the disease in time, CHIEF SEATTLE, To Top Gamblers 5 Dear Sports: There has lately appeared on the Seattle market a little top—-the “take out and put in” top, It Igoks like an innocuous game. Ha! Ha! The main trouble is one generally “puts in” and rarely takes out. 1 speak from experience! CHIEF SEATTLE. \To the Chef D’Marche at Pike Place Dear Chef: For the last three days your big Wirst ave, clock has registered 4:54. Has nearly given me heart failure several times when 1 was on my way to keep an afternoon appointment. Many shoppers depend on that clock. Can't we have it running again soon? CHIEF SEATTLE. To the City Street Department Listen; Drive your autos along the Western ave. car track back of the immigration station at the foot of Union st. Then hold extraor- dinary session and arrange to have that danger spot repaired before someone is hurt, One fellow, I'm told, tipped over already in nego. tiating that strip of street, CHIRF SEATTLE. To the County Commissioners Gentlemen: Many unpleasant things are being said about the coun. ty’s forry system and many more ure apparently being prepared. tec saying, In your efforts to cope with the situation you will remember of course, that you are public servants and you cannot allow your, selves to be swayed by interests that attempt to flatter you person. ally, The attack on the ferry system is openly an atack on. public ownership of utilities as a principle, and you should be unmoved by it You will remember that the opponents of public ownership laid. theie same sledge hammers on the street cars and had to retire ignomin fously when the facts were brought to light. Your business, gentle men, is to do what will best serve the people. If in so doing you should happen to win another victory for public ownership, it should not worry you in the least.
